904ea2763e Add automatic hot spare functionality
When a vdev starts getting I/O or checksum errors it is now
possible to automatically rebuild to a hot spare device.

To cleanly support this functionality in a shell script some
additional information was added to all zevent ereports which
include a vdev.  This covers both io and checksum zevents but
may be used but other scripts.

In the Illumos FMA solution the same information is required
but it is retrieved through the libzfs library interface.
Specifically the following members were added:

  vdev_spare_paths  - List of vdev paths for all hot spares.
  vdev_spare_guids  - List of vdev guids for all hot spares.
  vdev_read_errors  - Read errors for the problematic vdev
  vdev_write_errors - Write errors for the problematic vdev
  vdev_cksum_errors - Checksum errors for the problematic vdev.

By default the required hot spare scripts are installed but this
functionality is disabled.  To enable hot sparing uncomment the
ZED_SPARE_ON_IO_ERRORS and ZED_SPARE_ON_CHECKSUM_ERRORS in the
/etc/zfs/zed.d/zed.rc configuration file.

These scripts do no add support for the autoexpand property. At
a minimum this requires adding a new udev rule to detect when
a new device is added to the system.  It also requires that the
autoexpand policy be ported from Illumos, see:

  https://github.com/illumos/illumos-gate/blob/master/usr/src/cmd/syseventd/modules/zfs_mod/zfs_mod.c

Support for detecting the correct name of a vdev when it's not
a whole disk was added by Turbo Fredriksson.

ffe9d38275 Add generic errata infrastructure
From time to time it may be necessary to inform the pool administrator
about an errata which impacts their pool.  These errata will by shown
to the administrator through the 'zpool status' and 'zpool import'
output as appropriate.  The errata must clearly describe the issue
detected, how the pool is impacted, and what action should be taken
to resolve the situation.  Additional information for each errata will
be provided at http://zfsonlinux.org/msg/ZFS-8000-ER.

To accomplish the above this patch adds the required infrastructure to
allow the kernel modules to notify the utilities that an errata has
been detected.  This is done through the ZPOOL_CONFIG_ERRATA uint64_t
which has been added to the pool configuration nvlist.

To add a new errata the following changes must be made:

* A new errata identifier must be assigned by adding a new enum value
  to the zpool_errata_t type.  New enums must be added to the end to
  preserve the existing ordering.

* Code must be added to detect the issue.  This does not strictly
  need to be done at pool import time but doing so will make the
  errata visible in 'zpool import' as well as 'zpool status'.  Once
  detected the spa->spa_errata member should be set to the new enum.

* If possible code should be added to clear the spa->spa_errata member
  once the errata has been resolved.

* The show_import() and status_callback() functions must be updated
  to include an informational message describing the errata.  This
  should include an action message describing what an administrator
  should do to address the errata.

* The documentation at http://zfsonlinux.org/msg/ZFS-8000-ER must be
  updated to describe the errata.  This space can be used to provide
  as much additional information as needed to fully describe the errata.
  A link to this documentation will be automatically generated in the
  output of 'zpool import' and 'zpool status'.

d1d7e2689d cstyle: Resolve C style issues
The vast majority of these changes are in Linux specific code.
They are the result of not having an automated style checker to
validate the code when it was originally written.  Others were
caused when the common code was slightly adjusted for Linux.

This patch contains no functional changes.  It only refreshes
the code to conform to style guide.

Everyone submitting patches for inclusion upstream should now
run 'make checkstyle' and resolve any warning prior to opening
a pull request.  The automated builders have been updated to
fail a build if when 'make checkstyle' detects an issue.

e8b96c6007 Illumos #4045 write throttle & i/o scheduler performance work
4045 zfs write throttle & i/o scheduler performance work

1. The ZFS i/o scheduler (vdev_queue.c) now divides i/os into 5 classes: sync
read, sync write, async read, async write, and scrub/resilver.  The scheduler
issues a number of concurrent i/os from each class to the device.  Once a class
has been selected, an i/o is selected from this class using either an elevator
algorithem (async, scrub classes) or FIFO (sync classes).  The number of
concurrent async write i/os is tuned dynamically based on i/o load, to achieve
good sync i/o latency when there is not a high load of writes, and good write
throughput when there is.  See the block comment in vdev_queue.c (reproduced
below) for more details.

2. The write throttle (dsl_pool_tempreserve_space() and
txg_constrain_throughput()) is rewritten to produce much more consistent delays
when under constant load.  The new write throttle is based on the amount of
dirty data, rather than guesses about future performance of the system.  When
there is a lot of dirty data, each transaction (e.g. write() syscall) will be
delayed by the same small amount.  This eliminates the "brick wall of wait"
that the old write throttle could hit, causing all transactions to wait several
seconds until the next txg opens.  One of the keys to the new write throttle is
decrementing the amount of dirty data as i/o completes, rather than at the end
of spa_sync().  Note that the write throttle is only applied once the i/o
scheduler is issuing the maximum number of outstanding async writes.  See the
block comments in dsl_pool.c and above dmu_tx_delay() (reproduced below) for
more details.

This diff has several other effects, including:

 * the commonly-tuned global variable zfs_vdev_max_pending has been removed;
use per-class zfs_vdev_*_max_active values or zfs_vdev_max_active instead.

 * the size of each txg (meaning the amount of dirty data written, and thus the
time it takes to write out) is now controlled differently.  There is no longer
an explicit time goal; the primary determinant is amount of dirty data.
Systems that are under light or medium load will now often see that a txg is
always syncing, but the impact to performance (e.g. read latency) is minimal.
Tune zfs_dirty_data_max and zfs_dirty_data_sync to control this.

 * zio_taskq_batch_pct = 75 -- Only use 75% of all CPUs for compression,
checksum, etc.  This improves latency by not allowing these CPU-intensive tasks
to consume all CPU (on machines with at least 4 CPU's; the percentage is
rounded up).

--matt

APPENDIX: problems with the current i/o scheduler

The current ZFS i/o scheduler (vdev_queue.c) is deadline based.  The problem
with this is that if there are always i/os pending, then certain classes of
i/os can see very long delays.

For example, if there are always synchronous reads outstanding, then no async
writes will be serviced until they become "past due".  One symptom of this
situation is that each pass of the txg sync takes at least several seconds
(typically 3 seconds).

If many i/os become "past due" (their deadline is in the past), then we must
service all of these overdue i/os before any new i/os.  This happens when we
enqueue a batch of async writes for the txg sync, with deadlines 2.5 seconds in
the future.  If we can't complete all the i/os in 2.5 seconds (e.g. because
there were always reads pending), then these i/os will become past due.  Now we
must service all the "async" writes (which could be hundreds of megabytes)
before we service any reads, introducing considerable latency to synchronous
i/os (reads or ZIL writes).

Notes on porting to ZFS on Linux:

- zio_t gained new members io_physdone and io_phys_children.  Because
  object caches in the Linux port call the constructor only once at
  allocation time, objects may contain residual data when retrieved
  from the cache. Therefore zio_create() was updated to zero out the two
  new fields.

- vdev_mirror_pending() relied on the depth of the per-vdev pending queue
  (vq->vq_pending_tree) to select the least-busy leaf vdev to read from.
  This tree has been replaced by vq->vq_active_tree which is now used
  for the same purpose.

- vdev_queue_init() used the value of zfs_vdev_max_pending to determine
  the number of vdev I/O buffers to pre-allocate.  That global no longer
  exists, so we instead use the sum of the *_max_active values for each of
  the five I/O classes described above.

- The Illumos implementation of dmu_tx_delay() delays a transaction by
  sleeping in condition variable embedded in the thread
  (curthread->t_delay_cv).  We do not have an equivalent CV to use in
  Linux, so this change replaced the delay logic with a wrapper called
  zfs_sleep_until(). This wrapper could be adopted upstream and in other
  downstream ports to abstract away operating system-specific delay logic.

- These tunables are added as module parameters, and descriptions added
  to the zfs-module-parameters.5 man page.

  spa_asize_inflation
  zfs_deadman_synctime_ms
  zfs_vdev_max_active
  zfs_vdev_async_write_active_min_dirty_percent
  zfs_vdev_async_write_active_max_dirty_percent
  zfs_vdev_async_read_max_active
  zfs_vdev_async_read_min_active
  zfs_vdev_async_write_max_active
  zfs_vdev_async_write_min_active
  zfs_vdev_scrub_max_active
  zfs_vdev_scrub_min_active
  zfs_vdev_sync_read_max_active
  zfs_vdev_sync_read_min_active
  zfs_vdev_sync_write_max_active
  zfs_vdev_sync_write_min_active
  zfs_dirty_data_max_percent
  zfs_delay_min_dirty_percent
  zfs_dirty_data_max_max_percent
  zfs_dirty_data_max
  zfs_dirty_data_max_max
  zfs_dirty_data_sync
  zfs_delay_scale

  The latter four have type unsigned long, whereas they are uint64_t in
  Illumos.  This accommodates Linux's module_param() supported types, but
  means they may overflow on 32-bit architectures.

  The values zfs_dirty_data_max and zfs_dirty_data_max_max are the most
  likely to overflow on 32-bit systems, since they express physical RAM
  sizes in bytes.  In fact, Illumos initializes zfs_dirty_data_max_max to
  2^32 which does overflow. To resolve that, this port instead initializes
  it in arc_init() to 25% of physical RAM, and adds the tunable
  zfs_dirty_data_max_max_percent to override that percentage.  While this
  solution doesn't completely avoid the overflow issue, it should be a
  reasonable default for most systems, and the minority of affected
  systems can work around the issue by overriding the defaults.

- Fixed reversed logic in comment above zfs_delay_scale declaration.

- Clarified comments in vdev_queue.c regarding when per-queue minimums take
  effect.

- Replaced dmu_tx_write_limit in the dmu_tx kstat file
  with dmu_tx_dirty_delay and dmu_tx_dirty_over_max.  The first counts
  how many times a transaction has been delayed because the pool dirty
  data has exceeded zfs_delay_min_dirty_percent.  The latter counts how
  many times the pool dirty data has exceeded zfs_dirty_data_max (which
  we expect to never happen).

- The original patch would have regressed the bug fixed in
  zfsonlinux/zfs@c418410, which prevented users from setting the
  zfs_vdev_aggregation_limit tuning larger than SPA_MAXBLOCKSIZE.
  A similar fix is added to vdev_queue_aggregate().

- In vdev_queue_io_to_issue(), dynamically allocate 'zio_t search' on the
  heap instead of the stack.  In Linux we can't afford such large
  structures on the stack.

Porting notes:

1. zfs_dbgmsg_print() is only used in userland. Since we do not have
   mdb on Linux, it does not make sense to make it available in the
   kernel. This means that a build failure will occur if any future
   kernel patch depends on it. However, that is unlikely given that
   this functionality was added to support zdb.

2. zfs_dbgmsg_print() is only invoked for -VVV or greater log levels.
   This preserves the existing behavior of minimal noise when running
   with -V, and -VV.

3. In vdev_config_generate() the call to nvlist_alloc() was not
   changed to fnvlist_alloc() because we must pass KM_PUSHPAGE in
   the txg_sync context.

WARNING: This patch changes the user/kernel ABI.  That means that
the zfs/zpool utilities built from master are NOT compatible with
the 0.6.2 kernel modules.  Ensure you load the matching kernel
modules from master after updating the utilities.  Otherwise the
zfs/zpool commands will be unable to interact with your pool and
you will see errors similar to the following:

  $ zpool list
  failed to read pool configuration: bad address
  no pools available

  $ zfs list
  no datasets available

Add zvol minor device creation to the new zfs_snapshot_nvl function.

Remove the logging of the "release" operation in
dsl_dataset_user_release_sync().  The logging caused a null dereference
because ds->ds_dir is zeroed in dsl_dataset_destroy_sync() and the
logging functions try to get the ds name via the dsl_dataset_name()
function. I've got no idea why this particular code would have worked
in Illumos.  This code has subsequently been completely reworked in
Illumos commit 3b2aab1 (3464 zfs synctask code needs restructuring).

Squash some "may be used uninitialized" warning/erorrs.

Fix some printf format warnings for %lld and %llu.

c12936b141 Fix module probe failure on 32-bit systems
Previous commit 7ef5e54e2e caused
module probe failure on 32-bit systems, dmesg showed

  Unknown symbol __moddi3

This was caused by the modulo operation 'gethrtime() % tqs->stqs_count'
in the committed code.  Instead of implementing __moddi3 for all 32-bit
systems, Behlendorf advised we can just cast the return value of
gethrtime() into a uint64_t, since gethrtime does not return negative
value on all circumstances we need not care about the potential overflow.

044baf009a Use taskq for dump_bytes()
The vn_rdwr() function performs I/O by calling the vfs_write() or
vfs_read() functions.  These functions reside just below the system
call layer and the expectation is they have almost the entire 8k of
stack space to work with.  In fact, certain layered configurations
such as ext+lvm+md+multipath require the majority of this stack to
avoid stack overflows.

To avoid this posibility the vn_rdwr() call in dump_bytes() has been
moved to the ZIO_TYPE_FREE, taskq.  This ensures that all I/O will be
performed with the majority of the stack space available.  This ends
up being very similiar to as if the I/O were issued via sys_write()
or sys_read().

Notes for Linux port:

Earlier commit 08d08eb reduced contention on this taskq lock by simply
reducing the number of z_fr_iss threads from 100 to one-per-CPU.  We
also optimized the taskq implementation in zfsonlinux/spl@3c6ed54.
These changes significantly improved unlink performance to acceptable
levels.

This patch further reduces time spent spinning on this lock by
randomly dispatching the work items over multiple independent task
queues.  The Illumos ZFS developers stated that this lock contention
only arose after "3329 spa_sync() spends 10-20% of its time in
spa_free_sync_cb()" was landed.  It's not clear if 3329 affects the
Linux port or not.  I didn't see spa_free_sync_cb() show up in
oprofile sessions while unlinking large files, but I may just not
have used the right test case.

I tested unlinking a 1 TB of data with and without the patch and
didn't observe a meaningful difference in elapsed time.  However,
oprofile showed that the percent time spent in taskq_thread() was
reduced from about 16% to about 5%.  Aside from a possible slight
performance benefit this may be worth landing if only for the sake of
maintaining consistency with upstream.

The vdev_file.c implementation in this patch diverges significantly
from the upstream version.  For consistenty with the vdev_disk.c
code the upstream version leverages the Illumos bio interfaces.
This makes sense for Illumos but not for ZoL for two reasons.

1) The vdev_disk.c code in ZoL has been rewritten to use the
   Linux block device interfaces which differ significantly
   from those in Illumos.  Therefore, updating the vdev_file.c
   to use the Illumos interfaces doesn't get you consistency
   with vdev_disk.c.

2) Using the upstream patch as is would requiring implementing
   compatibility code for those Solaris block device interfaces
   in user and kernel space.  That additional complexity could
   lead to confusion and doesn't buy us anything.

For these reasons I've opted to simply move the existing vn_rdwr()
as is in to the taskq function.  This has the advantage of being
low risk and easy to understand.  Moving the vn_rdwr() function
in to its own taskq thread also neatly avoids the possibility of
a stack overflow.

Finally, because of the additional work which is being handled by
the free taskq the number of threads has been increased.  The
thread count under Illumos defaults to 100 but was decreased to 2
in commit 08d08e due to contention.  We increase it to 8 until
the contention can be address by porting Illumos #3581.

NOTES: This patch has been reworked from the original in the
following ways to accomidate Linux ZFS implementation

*) Usage of the cyclic interface was replaced by the delayed taskq
   interface.  This avoids the need to implement new compatibility
   code and allows us to rely on the existing taskq implementation.

*) An extern for zfs_txg_synctime_ms was added to sys/dsl_pool.h
   because declaring externs in source files as was done in the
   original patch is just plain wrong.

*) Instead of panicing the system when the deadman triggers a
   zevent describing the blocked vdev and the first pending I/O
   is posted.  If the panic behavior is desired Linux provides
   other generic methods to panic the system when threads are
   observed to hang.

*) For reference, to delay zios by 30 seconds for testing you can
   use zinject as follows: 'zinject -d <vdev> -D30 <pool>'

b8d06fca08 Switch KM_SLEEP to KM_PUSHPAGE
Differences between how paging is done on Solaris and Linux can cause
deadlocks if KM_SLEEP is used in any the following contexts.

  * The txg_sync thread
  * The zvol write/discard threads
  * The zpl_putpage() VFS callback

This is because KM_SLEEP will allow for direct reclaim which may result
in the VM calling back in to the filesystem or block layer to write out
pages.  If a lock is held over this operation the potential exists to
deadlock the system.  To ensure forward progress all memory allocations
in these contexts must us KM_PUSHPAGE which disables performing any I/O
to accomplish the memory allocation.

Previously, this behavior was acheived by setting PF_MEMALLOC on the
thread.  However, that resulted in unexpected side effects such as the
exhaustion of pages in ZONE_DMA.  This approach touchs more of the zfs
code, but it is more consistent with the right way to handle these cases
under Linux.

This is patch lays the ground work for being able to safely revert the
following commits which used PF_MEMALLOC:

  21ade34 Disable direct reclaim for z_wr_* threads

PF_MEMALLOC has the side effect of permitting pages from ZONE_DMA
to be allocated.  The use of PF_MEMALLOC was found to cause stability
problems when doing swap on zvols. Since this technique is known to
cause problems and no longer fixes anything, we revert it.

08d08ebba2 Reduce number of zio free threads
As described in Issue #458 and #258, unlinking large amounts of data
can cause the threads in the zio free wait queue to start spinning.
Reducing the number of z_fr_iss threads from a fixed value of 100 to 1
per cpu signficantly reduces contention on the taskq spinlock and
improves throughput.

Instrumenting the taskq code showed that __taskq_dispatch() can spend
a long time holding tq->tq_lock if there are a large number of threads
in the queue.  It turns out the time spent in wake_up() scales
linearly with the number of threads in the queue.  When a large number
of short work items are dispatched, as seems to be the case with
unlink, the worker threads drain the queue faster than the dispatcher
can fill it.  They then all pile into the work wait queue to wait for
new work items.  So if 100 threads are in the queue, wake_up() takes
about 100 times as long, and the woken threads have to spin until the
dispatcher releases the lock.

Reducing the number of threads helps with the symptoms, but doesn't
get to the root of the problem.  It would seem that wake_up()
shouldn't scale linearly in time with queue depth, particularly if we
are only trying to wake up one thread.  In that vein, I tried making
all of the waiting processes exclusive to prevent the scheduler from
iterating over the entire list, but I still saw the linear time
scaling.  So further investigation is needed, but in the meantime
reducing the thread count is an easy workaround.

a38718a63d Illumos #734: Use taskq_dispatch_ent() interface
It has been observed that some of the hottest locks are those
of the zio taskqs.  Contention on these locks can limit the
rate at which zios are dispatched which limits performance.

This upstream change from Illumos uses new interface to the
taskqs which allow them to utilize a prealloc'ed taskq_ent_t.
This removes the need to perform an allocation at dispatch
time while holding the contended lock.  This has the effect
of improving system performance.

The direct reclaim path in the z_wr_* threads must be disabled

This ensures that a txg will never get stuck waiting on itself
because it entered the following memory reclaim callpath.

  ->prune_icache()->dispose_list()->zpl_clear_inode()->zfs_inactive()
  ->dmu_tx_assign()->dmu_tx_wait()->tgx_wait_open()

It would be preferable to target this exact code path but the
kernel offers no way to do this without custom patches.  To avoid
this we are forced to disable all reclaim for these threads.  It
should not be necessary to do this for other other z_* threads
because they will not hold a txg open.

This topic branch leverages the Solaris style FMA call points
in ZFS to create a user space visible event notification system
under Linux.  This new system is called zevent and it unifies
all previous Solaris style ereports and sysevent notifications.

Under this Linux specific scheme when a sysevent or ereport event
occurs an nvlist describing the event is created which looks almost
exactly like a Solaris ereport.  These events are queued up in the
kernel when they occur and conditionally logged to the console.
It is then up to a user space application to consume the events
and do whatever it likes with them.

To make this possible the existing /dev/zfs ABI has been extended
with two new ioctls which behave as follows.

* ZFS_IOC_EVENTS_NEXT
Get the next pending event.  The kernel will keep track of the last
event consumed by the file descriptor and provide the next one if
available.  If no new events are available the ioctl() will block
waiting for the next event.  This ioctl may also be called in a
non-blocking mode by setting zc.zc_guid = ZEVENT_NONBLOCK.  In the
non-blocking case if no events are available ENOENT will be returned.
It is possible that ESHUTDOWN will be returned if the ioctl() is
called while module unloading is in progress.  And finally ENOMEM
may occur if the provided nvlist buffer is not large enough to
contain the entire event.

* ZFS_IOC_EVENTS_CLEAR
Clear are events queued by the kernel.  The kernel will keep a fairly
large number of recent events queued, use this ioctl to clear the
in kernel list.  This will effect all user space processes consuming
events.

The zpool command has been extended to use this events ABI with the
'events' subcommand.  You may run 'zpool events -v' to output a
verbose log of all recent events.  This is very similar to the
Solaris 'fmdump -ev' command with the key difference being it also
includes what would be considered sysevents under Solaris.  You
may also run in follow mode with the '-f' option.  To clear the
in kernel event queue use the '-c' option.

$ sudo cmd/zpool/zpool events -fv
TIME                        CLASS
May 13 2010 16:31:15.777711000 ereport.fs.zfs.config.sync
        class = "ereport.fs.zfs.config.sync"
        ena = 0x40982b7897700001
        detector = (embedded nvlist)
                version = 0x0
                scheme = "zfs"
                pool = 0xed976600de75dfa6
        (end detector)

        time = 0x4bec8bc3 0x2e5aed98
        pool = "zpios"
        pool_guid = 0xed976600de75dfa6
        pool_context = 0x0

While the 'zpool events' command is handy for interactive debugging
it is not expected to be the primary consumer of zevents.  This ABI
was primarily added to facilitate the addition of a user space
monitoring daemon.  This daemon would consume all events posted by
the kernel and based on the type of event perform an action.  For
most events simply forwarding them on to syslog is likely enough.
But this interface also cleanly allows for more sophisticated
actions to be taken such as generating an email for a failed drive.

Decrease stack usage for various call paths by forcing certain
functions to be inlined.  By inlining the functions the overhead
of a new stack frame is removed at the cost of increased code size.
